GARDNER | | | | RELIGION AND ART IN ANCIENT GREECE | | | | | | "Anything from such an authority on Greek | | art is welcome. This subject in the hands of | | Professor Gardner becomes a profoundly | | interesting study in the philosophy of | | religion. He has dealt with the religion of | | Greece as it affected the art of sculpture, | | and with the reaction of that art upon the | | ideals and aspirations of the people and its | | influence upon the popular and the educated | | conceptions of the gods. It is well worth | | the trouble to study the religious art of | | such a people, and this is an epitome of the | | subject such as readers can get nowhere | | else." | | | | _Scotsman._ | | | -------------------------------------------------
